YHA Bath

Our stay at the hostel was largely enjoyable, thanks to the friendly and accommodating staff, especially Cara at reception. She was incredibly pleasant, polite, and helpful, ensuring our staggered check-ins went smoothly and making us feel welcome after long journeys from various locations. The bar provided a cosy space to unwind, with the company of fellow travellers adding a unique and delightful atmosphere to the experience. The facilities were generally well-maintained and clean, which we appreciated. However, the beds left something to be desired in terms of comfort. Unfortunately, I woke up on the second night with several bug bites on my arms, neck, and legs. While I can’t be certain the bites came from the beds, it seemed likely. Despite this, the hostel’s convenient location, attentive staff, and overall tidiness contributed to an enjoyable stay. With a few improvements to bedding, it would be an even better choice for travellers. As mentioned above, bug bites from sleeping in dorm 8.

Bed bugs. Not clean at all.
